i someitmes wish i would have just gone with a cam headers and nitrous on this thing. putting FI on it is so much more involved but i know the end result will be way more satisfying. + im a turbo guy. always have been.

LS1PUNKS fuel lines look awkward but that's the way to run it. 2 inlets>1
Looks good though, just different. I really like it.

pulled the motor today. put my solid machined grommets in my AJE K member. also put my ctsv oil pan on. forgot my digi cam so sorry for the low res POS iphone photos.




i fabbed up my dipstick tube. i took the stock ctsv one and cut the flange on it and rewelded it and bent the tube to fit. it looks stock and fits perfect.





this motor is pretty much ready to run at this point. im starting to get excited every time i work on it cause it feels like alot of progress is being made. im going to clean up the engine bay while the motors out. its pretty ******* disgusting lol.

well i bought everything for my fuel system minus a couple of fittings yesterday. i got a magnafuel 4303 pro pump and a **** ton of fittings and black braided line. i went down and got all my engine bay stuff taken care of.


had to send my crossover pipe back to the welder to get a gusset to support the wastegate and when thats done i wont have to pull the system apart againuntil i put the cam in it. in a nutshell the engine compartment is almost done. next phase will be the chassis and i cant wait for that.
